Reviews From Guests

The apartment is great, good localization to visit Manhattan (very close to M and R lines), full of restaurants and supermarket around, spacious enough for two couples and a kid and clean so what more can you ask for? Oh yes, an excellent communication with Yusnier, the owner, that was always very helpful. So for sure we will consider to repeat in a future and we will recommend this place.
Abel.

This property looks exactly like the pictures. As Yusnier states this is an older apartment in an old building. Nevertheless it is visible that efforts are made to keep all very clean.
The bedroom has all the basics you need and the bed is quite comfortable. Towels and Wifi was available. We shared the apartment with another couple. We were not sure about that at first, but since we were out all day we had no problems at all.
Though in a less attractive street of Astoria, the apartment is great value considering the location. You've got two subway stations minutes away. You're in Manhattan in no time. In addition there are plenty of shops and restaurants in direct vicinity.
Recommended!; If like us you will basically just get in to refresh or get a comfortable sleep, this is the place that provides just that while saving you some $$.

Arriving in NYC by Megabus we were afraid that going to Astoria might be problematic. But 35 min later you step out of the metro walk three blocks and there we were. Yousnier gave us detailed descriptions of where the keys were and the only challenge was opening the front door. However, being patient helps. The apartment was as expected. A nice room with one bed, big enough for two and all in all just perfect for the price.
The real surprise is the neighborhood! A really good Brazilian restaurant around the corner, laundry service, drug stores and 24/7 grocery store and the metro being just 5 min away.
All in all dont get luxury but you get a really affordable comfortable room with a host that is very helpful and responsive.

We got a good traveldescription to go from JFK to the apt.
Also the description to enter the apt was good.
We had a very nice stay, the apt might not be big but it sure is cosey.
Astoria is a nice and friendly neighbourhood, there's an Sub at 5minutes away from the apt with a direct transportation to Times Sqaure, Grand Central, Battery Park...
We hope to stay there in the future ;)

I booked a room at Yusnier's place for my mom and her friend. The communication with Yusnier was easy and very effective. He was very helpful and replied to all my questions in no time.
As for the apartment, this is my mom's reference (I just translated it):
The apartment was exactly as shown in the pictures. We loved that it was very close to the subway and the neighborhood felt very safe. It was clean and it was easy to get the key after following Yusnier's instructions.
Overall a great stay.

The area was actually quite decent with shops and a huge supermarket nearby. The building itself looks a bit rough from outside and the stairway is quite dark and a bit dingy. My mum and aunt weren't too impressed with the place but for the money i thought it was alright. The accommodation was basic but clean. We had to buy a toaster and kettle as there was none provided.
Though we never met Yusnier, he was very pleasant to deal with and the check in and out was very easy.

I know Yusnier for more than two years already. He is extremely responsive, organized and friendly, no worries when staying at his apartment; and if you are lucky enough you get to see him playing,he is one of a kind percussionist.
